Ecocity Berkeley
Proud to be B-Corp
The feel-good place to buy books
Richard Register grew up in New Mexico under the shadow of the mushroom cloud, knowing some designers of the hydrogen bombs, the end of the world. So naturally he has been concerned with how to turn that around. He built sculpture for the sense of touch (maybe we could get back in touch), started a peace group called No War Toys (wondering what the influence of encouraging little boys to pretend to kill their friends for fun might have on human propensity to war). Later he decided to focus on ecologically healthy cities because, after all, they are big. The biggest most environmentally consequential things we build in fact. So we better build them right. Doing so begins to define a new economics and new relationship to ecology and evolution. So it seems he's something of a fanatic for trying to shape us up to rescue the world. If we can strive to understand the universe and dream of life everlasting, either for individuals or for life itself collectively, why not? That's what he thinks. So his profession evolved to suggestion for means of survival and thriving. He lives in Oakland, California, writes, draws and travels internationally to talk about all this and to try to keep learning.
